Dezzer,
Go from some high quality polyurethane sealer/adhesive such as ARBO or SIKA. Best go for white if your hull is white. Drill your holes smaller than your screws and coat the screw with sealer going in. You will only need a small amount of sealer. Make sure to mark the holes first allowing for the adjustment on the bracket after. You won't need sealer/adhesive on the bracket itself (not garmin or lowrance anyway).

I'm sure you'll have no hassle.
